BossHossBikes (125), Tennessee, USA May 10, 2008 Updated: May 20, 2008 Corked Bottle. Pours a ruby-burgundy with a very thin pink head. The aroma is a dry, bitter sourness and some hints of cherry and gratss. The flavour is of cherries and has an extremely tart tinge. Towards the finish, there’s a dry, sharp cheese-like flavour mixed with the sourness as the cherries diminishes. As the brew warms, the sharp cheese mouth-feel as well as the flavour is a little more noticeable behind the intense sourness. This is delicious.
Scauca (260), Lovere, Italy Oct 5, 2008 Deep red with no head. Sweet cherry aroma, some wood, some sourness. Definitely not sour nor bretta’s tipycal aromas featured, but still a remarkably good kriek. grandridge (159), Port Clinton, Ohio, USA Sep 27, 2008 375mL Lot 01 Bottled Feb. 2005. Pours an orange-red with minimal head. Aroma is tart cherries and wood. Flavor is very sour cherries and wood at first. Finishes very dry and tart. Not very complex, you are overwhelmed by sour cherries with woody undertones. A slight sweetness in there towards the finish but not much else. vyvvy (1728), Hazelwood, Missouri, USA Sep 24, 2008 Pours quite reddish with a very small head. The aroma is quite tart and vinegary, share, some sour cherries, wild yeast and some wood. Thin body with little to no carbonation. The flavor starts with lots of tartness, sourness and cherries. The finish is more of the same. This is not very complex, especially from 3 Fonteinen, but what is there is what I like. Ober (390), Best, Netherlands Sep 16, 2008 A dark red colored beer, with a reddies head, which disappears very quickly. The aroma of cherry fruits, with sweets and a little sour. The taste of sour cherries, wood. It has a long dry finish. JK54B (385), Finland Sep 14, 2008 Gorgeus red colour. A dry cherryish tatse. Nice head. Well balanced sourness/sweetness. A bottle tatsed at Pikkulintu.
